HANGZHOU, China, Aug. 28 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Astronergy wins a 2 MW

The industrial park is situated in the northeast corner of Hangzhou
city, covering an area of 23.8 square kilometers. The rooftop of the Green
Science and Technology Hall will be among the first to incorporate
building-integrated PV (BIPV) technologies. Astronergy's high efficiency
tandem thin film PV modules with a light transmission rate of 30% will be
used for the Hall's 58 square meters sunroof. This thin film PV module is
also highly resistant to harsh climate conditions such as strong winds and
heavy rainfall. The Energy Conservation Hall on the other side of the
industrial park will also employ Astronergy's high efficiency thin film PV
modules on its 265 square meters curved building wall.

Astronergy will design and install the entire project with a
combination of crystalline silicon based modules and high efficiency tandem
thin film PV modules. This project will be completed by September 30th of
2009.
The Chinese government put forth the Golden Sun program on July 22nd,
2009 to financially support the growth and development of the domestic PV
market and industry. Under this policy, the government plans to finance at
least 500 MW in various PV stations and projects in a two to three year
timeline.
"This program will create many excellent opportunities such as this
project to showcase Astronergy's revolutionary new thin film technology,
which will help us to differentiate ourselves and to establish our position
in the industry," said Dr. Liyou Yang, CEO of Astronergy.
